What cleans Kiwi off of and out of action after bedding? Did first bedding and was over catious with kiwi. Tried search found lot of threads with "cleaning" and "kiwi" but nothing specific about geting kiwi off. Tried brake cleaner, but no go.

Thanks in advance

did you try just regular rubbing alcohol..it cleans wax of surfaces to apply stickers an such , it should work.

Thanks for alcohol tip, will give it a shot. With 19 yrs in Army I have plenty of experience putting kiwi on but not taking it off! I got kiwi inside bolt race and lug area and kinda hard to get to some of it. appreciate any and all other easy tips, gotta get it cleaned up and assembled before movers come, PCSing yet again, 11th move

Methel Ethel Keytone (MEK) will also cut through the wax. It's a great degreaser but needs to be used in a well ventilated area.
